Hi Tom,

I like ISS Server Sensor, it works fine and if you want you can correlate
informations from HIDS, NIDS and vulnerability assessment software from ISS
in a centralized console. Take a look at www.iss.net

Assunto: HIDS recommendations


I am interested in using a host-based IDS for a few of our servers that
face the Internet and are most vulnerable.  The only product I am even
slightly familiar with is Tripwire, which apparently comes in free and
non-free variants.  I am interested in your experiences and
recommendations.  Eventually I would like to team this up with some sort
of NIDS, but that's a fairly large undertaking, from what I've gathered.
I thought that it might be easier to start off with HIDS.  My servers
are currently Windows-based, but there will most likely be a Linux or
BSD box in the mix very shortly.  They run basic services such as web,
mail, etc.  Any thoughts?  Thanks.

Tom Dominico
